The 21-year-old has agreed a four-year deal with Sunderland, after successfully completing a medical at the Stadium of Light.
Campbell spent most of last season on loan at Tottenham, where he helped the team reach the Carling Cup final before being ruled ineligible to face United - who went on to win on penalties.
